Blue Seal IN511HF-L 450mm Single Zone Full Area Induction Cooktop

Specifications from the Moffat Blue Seal IN511F spec sheet (PDF download), the previous model with the same workings, updated to the November 2026 Moffat price list.

The Blue Seal IN511HF is a 450mm single zone induction cooktop with one 5kW full area zone, 270mm square, on 6mm ceramic glass. It runs on 415V three phase at 8A per phase, sits under the 8kW where a hood is required, and comes on a bench, leg stand or cabinet base. Made in New Zealand by Moffat, with 2 years on site parts and labour.

Best for: a dedicated wok or sauce station, a small kitchen adding induction next to an existing line, or anywhere a hood is hard to fit.

IN511HF overview

The IN511HF is the full area version of the 450mm single zone induction cooktop. The whole 270mm square heats, so a pan can sit anywhere on it and a big pan gets even heat across the base. For single phase power, the IN511HR3 has a 3.5kW round zone on 240V. For the same 5kW in a round zone, there is the IN511HR5. Need two pans going in the same 450mm? The IN512HF has two full area zones, front and back.

How induction cooks

Induction turns power into a high frequency field that heats the base of the pan directly. The glass is not the heat source, so very little heat is lost into the kitchen and the cooktop reacts straight away to the knob. Lift the pan off and the zone switches off by itself. There is no flame and no gas fumes, so the kitchen stays cooler and cleaner.

Which 450mm single zone induction cooktop do I need?

All three are the same 450mm cooktop with one zone and the same choice of bases. The difference is the zone and the power supply.

Simple to use

One large knob with infinitely variable power. A green light shows the zone is heating and a pan is detected, and a second green light shows an error. The cooking surface is fully sealed, the stainless air intake filters pull out for cleaning, and service access is from the front.

Choose your base

The IN511HF comes as a bench model, on a leg stand, on a cabinet, or on a cabinet with doors. All stand on legs with adjustable feet. Rollers for the rear are an extra on the leg stand and cabinet. Just pick the base on this page.

Frequently asked questions

Who makes the Blue Seal IN511HF?
Moffat makes the Blue Seal IN511HF in New Zealand, and backs it in Australia with 2 years on site parts and labour.

What pans can I use on the IN511HF?
Most pans work.

Do I need a hood over the IN511HF?
No. At 5kW it is under the 8kW where a hood is required. A hood is still recommended to take away cooking smells and steam.

What power supply does the IN511HF need?
415V three phase, 5kW, 8A per phase. Your electrician connects it.

Is there a single phase version of the IN511HF?
Yes. The IN511HR3 has a 3.5kW round zone and runs on 240V single phase.

What is the difference between a full area zone and a round zone?
A full area zone heats the whole 270mm square, so the pan can sit anywhere on it and still get full heat. A round zone heats a round area, and the pan wants to sit in the middle of it.

Is induction as powerful as gas?
Induction puts the heat straight into the pan instead of heating the air around it, so very little is lost into the kitchen. It heats a pan fast, and the knob gives instant control up and down.

How does induction work?
The cooktop turns power into a high frequency field. The field is induced into the base of the pan, and the pan heats itself. The glass only gets hot from the pan sitting on it.

What happens if I lift the pan off?
The zone switches off by itself, and the heat stops straight away.

How do I clean the IN511HF?
Wipe down the sealed glass. Spills do not bake on like they do on a solid top, because the glass is not the heat source. The stainless air intake filters pull out for cleaning.

Will the glass crack?
The cooking surface is 6mm ceramic glass, made to take the heat of commercial cooking. Like any glass, a hard knock can damage it, so do not drop pans on it.

Does induction make the kitchen cooler?
Yes. There is no flame, so far less heat goes into the room, and there are no gas fumes like nitrogen dioxide or carbon monoxide.

Is induction reliable in a commercial kitchen?
Induction is a mature technology now. The modules are robust and long lasting, and everything is reached through the front for servicing.

What bases can I get the IN511HF on?
Bench model, leg stand, cabinet, or cabinet with doors. Just pick the base on this page.

Can I get rollers on the IN511HF?
Yes. Rollers for the rear are available as an extra on the leg stand and cabinet. Standard is legs with adjustable feet.

Will the IN511HF line up with other Blue Seal equipment?
Yes. It is fully modular and lines up with the Blue Seal Evolution range for a matched suite.

What are the dimensions of the IN511HF?
450mm wide and 818mm deep. Height including the splashback is 525mm on the bench model and 1085mm on a leg stand or cabinet.

How much does the IN511HF weigh?
88kg.
